Bangladesh Win Good For World Cricket

Bangladesh's 4-wicket win over Sri Lanka in the second ODI at Bogra is a great result for World Cricket. While officially a Test team, Bangladesh are still regarded by many as a minnow in cricket terms. Any time such a team has a victory over a higher placed team, it benefits cricket as a whole. Last year they beat Australia, this year Sri Lanka. Things are definitely on the way up for the Tigers, and other developing cricket nations can take heart from this win. Give the minnows more games, and they will start to win a greater percentage. I will not go further into it, as I don't want to stoke their confidence too much ahead of the Kenya tour, but well-done Bangladesh. Now all we need is for Kenya to follow suit in Zimbabwe.
